My 8th Honorary Degree

Tonight I will give the commencement address to the graduating class at Cypress College. I am going to tell them what it will take for them to succceed when they get into the real world. They are kind enough to recognize my life experience with an honorary degree.

1. Pepperdine University (1996)

2. St. Thomas University (!997)

3. Cal State Long Beach (1998)

Congrats Dr. Lasorda! Perhaps you might consider receiving one from our university(Monmouth) here in New Jersey, despite the nature of the territory. You would be a very welcome change to our most recent recipients!
